Catesby Estates, part of Urban&Civic, has sold a 32-acre plot of land in Cawston, Rugby, to Miller Homes.
This is the first sale from the L&Q Estates portfolio since the recent acquisition by Urban&Civic.
Located immediately south of Coventry Road and west of Cawston Lane, the site has outline planning consent for up to 210 homes as well as a two-form-entry primary school. Of the 210 homes, 30% will be affordable, and construction is due to start early next year with show homes expected to be open on site in June.
It is the first piece of land to be sold within the wider allocation known as Homestead View, the name of the South West Rugby Sustainable Urban Development Extension, which will comprise 5,000 homes, two schools, a district centre, 35 hectares of employment land, walking and cycling routes, new transport links and green infrastructure.
Neil Ballett, land director at Miller Homes West Midlands, added: “Miller Homes West Midlands is excited to have successfully acquired the first phase of land at Cawston, Rugby – an area we know well from our successful Poets Meadow scheme just a stone’s throw away.
“When the reserved matters consent is secured, it will allow much-needed quality housing to be delivered for the community, building on our strong local presence and commitment to the area.”
